| Buddhism’s Call to Action |
| Jack Kornfield on the importance of contributing to activism with Buddhist practice and wisdom. |
How
can you do this service work in the spirit of practice? As dharma
practitioners, the first task is to make your own heart a zone of peace.
Instead of becoming entangled in the pain or cynicism that exists
externally, you need to face your own fear, your own sufferings, and
transform them into compassion. Only then can you offer genuine help to
the outside world.
